Detailed Description

A class to print colored debug messages.

If the environment variable "SDH_NO_COLOR" is defined then the messages are printed without coloring (usefull for logging or if your terminal does not support colors.

Example:

   #include "sdh/dbg.h"
   d = cDBG( true );
   g = cDBG( true, "green" );

   d.PDM( "This message is printed in default color red" );
   g << "and this one in a nice green ";

   g << "of course you can debug print any objects that have a string representation: " << 08 << 15 << true;

   g << "Messages can be turned of and on, e.g. selected by command line options";
   g.SetFlag(false);
   g << "This messages is not printed";

cDBG::cDBG ( bool  flag = false,
char const *  color = "red",
std::ostream *  fd = &std::cerr 
) [inline]

constructor: construct a cDBG object

Parameters:
flag- the initial state of the flag, if true then messages sent to the object are printed. Default is false. Can be changed with SetFlag()
color- the name of the color to use, default is "red". Can be changed with SetColor()
fd- the ostream to use for output, default is stderr. Can be changed with SetOutput()

Member Function Documentation

bool cDBG::GetFlag ( void  ) const [inline]

Get debug_flag of this cDBG object.

Definition at line 158 of file dbg.h.

void cDBG::PDM ( char const *  fmt,
  ... 
)

Print debug messages of printf like fmt, ... in the color set with SetColor, but only if debug_flag is true.

void cDBG::SetColor ( char const *  color) [inline]

Set debug_color of this cDBG object to color. color is a string like "red", see util.py for valid names.

Attention:
The string is NOT copied, just a pointer is stored

Definition at line 170 of file dbg.h.

void cDBG::SetFlag ( bool  flag) [inline]

Set debug_flag of this cDBG object to flag. After setting the flag to true debug messages are printed, else not.

Definition at line 149 of file dbg.h.

void cDBG::SetOutput ( std::ostream *  fd) [inline]

Set output of this cDBG object to fd, which must be a file like object like sys.stderr
